Merlearn: Kid-Friendly Theme for SLS

Merlearn: Kid-Friendly Theme for SLS

How it started: My daughter, who started primary school this year, was asked to learn at home via SLS due to COVID-19. While assisting her in completing assignments, I figured out a few ways to make the website easier for her. I created Merlearn and wish it could help her as well as other kids become more independent.
